Fayetteville, Arkansas Celebrates Certification as a Community Wildlife Habitat
from Wildlife Promise
The weather didn’t cooperate when Fayetteville, Arkansas celebrated their recent certification as the first National Wildlife Federation Certified Community Wildlife Habitat in the state of Arkansas, but area residents were unfazed. They said that the rain was badly needed and celebrants gathered closely in the Gully Park pavilion after the skies opened up.
Fayetteville has made it a priority to provide habitat for wildlife across the city—in backyards, parks, schoolyards, businesses, the city’s wastewater treatment plants and even a local cemetery. Nearly 250 different locations across the city became NWF Certified Wildlife Habitat sites by providing food, water, cover and places to raise young for wildlife.
